happy birthday! And sorry about the "present" that came the day after. But maybe it means new life starting with your "new year"?
I'm happy that you made this short overview of your story. I was missing some parts of it. Though I did try to read some of your threads over the last few months I admit I did not manage to read all of them...
Good luck with the legal stuff and I hope you will be able to buy a home for you very soon. I'm sure that having your own place will make you feel much better.
